Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

Of course Zhao Kuo understood what Zhao Gan meant, so he laughed and said, "These are prime ministers, ministers and the like, all of them are old fritters. It's really embarrassing for you to fight with them. is you.

But you must also understand that as emperors, we must fight against these important officials from all walks of life who have gone through untold hardships to fight.

If we can't fight them, then our emperor's rights will be lost or even emptied, so in this struggle, our emperor cannot afford to lose.

However, there is another problem here, that is, at any time, these important ministers must be the best talents from all walks of life in order to be able to obtain such positions.

But not every emperor is so smart, so talented, and not all so capable of suppressing them.

So the emperor is not an easy job, the emperor must keep studying, the emperor must not be lazy, otherwise he will lose in the struggle with these smart people. "

What Zhao Kuo said is why in almost every dynasty in history, there will be ministers who emptied the emperor.

Because the ministers who can stand at the top are all born in the cruel struggle of thousands of troops and horses walking across the single-plank bridge, and finally they can stand in front of the emperor, but not every emperor can have enough Wisdom, educated enough to stand against these ministers.

As long as he is a slightly mediocre emperor, he is destined to be played around by those ministers who stand at the top.

Of course Zhao Qian could comprehend what Zhao Kuo meant, after thinking about it, his face became very serious, and he couldn't help but said: "The words Father said are indeed very reasonable.

And I was worried that what should we do if our descendants look wrong in the future, or give the position of emperor to a mediocre descendant because of selfishness? "

Zhao Kuo smiled and gave an answer.

"Frankly speaking, it will be a matter of time before a mediocre emperor appears, it is impossible to avoid.

After all, the ministers were selected from so many people in the whole country, and the emperor was only selected from a family like ours, and only one of the emperor's several or dozen sons at that time.

So what we have to do is to avoid such things as much as possible. When we know that it is inevitable, we should design enough systems to guarantee the rights of our emperor.

Of course, the system will also be changed, so if one day we find that we emperors really can't control the situation, on that day our royal family should completely back down and hand over power. "

After hearing Zhao Kuo's words, Zhao Qian was obviously stunned.

"Back down, hand over power?

Father, this" Zhao Kuo looked at Zhao Qian, smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

"Of course I also hope that our Han Kingdom will last forever, but the historical knowledge in my mind does not allow me to think that this will become a reality.

So I understand very well that it is impossible to say that every descendant will be as good as I am, and it is even impossible to say that every descendant will become a qualified emperor.

Therefore, when our royal family is really unable to support power, instead of letting us be overthrown in a civil strife, it is better to hand over all rights wisely, take a step back, and hand over all rights to the ministers. "

After listening to Zhao Kuo's words, Zhao Qian's mind was also in chaos.

I have to say that these words really had a great impact on Zhao Qian's thinking. He never thought that his father, the emperor, would have such a pessimistic imagination about the future.

Looking at Zhao Qian who was completely stunned, Zhao Kuo couldn't help laughing.

"Don't worry, what I said today is actually only done when things really can't go on.

If there is really hope, then of course I would be willing to let my descendants rule this country forever, wouldn't I?

You don't need to think so much, you just need to educate your future children well, and that's enough.

Every generation has a mission for every generation. It is impossible for us to plan the fate of future generations from now on, do you understand?

Doing your own thing is the most important thing. "

Zhao Qian pondered for a while, then nodded vigorously.

Chapter 1246 A textile factory full of women

After this conversation with Zhao Qian, Zhao Kuo returned to the palace.

The first thing to do after returning to the palace is, of course, to go to the ancestral temple to return the ax and axe, as well as the soldier charms, and present various spoils of war to the ancestors to show their respect for them.

Zhao Kuo felt that if the old ancestor's family really had spirits in the sky, seeing how powerful the Han Kingdom is today, it must be full of smiles.

After all this is done, it's time to reward the heroes.

For example, the four generals who followed Zhao Kuo to undertake the most important combat missions naturally all had awards, but their awards were mainly concentrated in titles, and their official positions did not change much.

There is no way around this, after all, the Han Kingdom has only been established for a few years, and many people have just held an official position for a few years, and it is far from the time to replace it with fresh blood.

However, I believe that as time goes by, these people will of course be able to be promoted slowly sooner or later. No one has any doubts about this. After all, Zhao Kuo has always been very fair in this regard.

After the awards were announced, it was a very lively celebration banquet.

It's just that Zhao Kuo didn't drink too much at the celebration banquet, he just sat casually for a while, drank a few glasses of wine, and then left the hall.

Zhao Kuo had already thought about the three wives in the court.

After all, as a man, he hasn't been with these three wives for two full years, even for a man like Zhao Kuo who is very controlling, it is also a kind of torment.

But Zhao Kuo is not in a hurry, after all, you have just returned from an expedition, so it must be bad to see your wife like this.

So Zhao Kuo went back to his bedroom first, and asked someone to arrange a big wooden barrel for bathing and washing.

As a modern person, Zhao Kuo has always been self-sufficient in taking a bath. When he was lying comfortably on the edge of the tub, a burst of footsteps suddenly entered his ears.

Zhao Kuo looked back and found that it was none other than his own queen Tian Wan.

After Zhao Kuo saw Tian Wan, he immediately laughed: "Why is the queen here?

I also want to say that I will look for you after washing. "

Tian Wan also said to Zhao Kuo with that kind of gentle smile: "Your Majesty has returned from the expedition, and of course the concubine wants to clean up the dust and serve His Majesty."

Speaking of which, Tian Wan also picked up the towel beside him very naturally, and helped Zhao Kuo to start rubbing his back.

Frustrated by the frustration, Zhao Kuo felt that his body suddenly began to slowly become hot, so he simply flipped his hands over and hugged Tian Wan.

With a splash, the two figures fell into the tub, and then the water gradually churned.

After a long time, everything cleared up, Zhao Kuo leaned on the edge of the bathtub very contentedly, Tian Wan lay on his chest docilely like a kitten.

"Queen, I have been away for more than a year, you have worked hard."

"Your Majesty laughed.

Concubines, as His Majesty's wife, these are the things that should be done. "

"You are quite right, Queen.

I think we still have a lot to do tonight. "

"Your Majesty, you should go to the two younger sisters first."

"It's okay, they can wait until tomorrow!"

All in all it was a very long and fun night.

This kind of long and happy night lasted for many days. After all, Zhao Kuo had three whole wives.

Wanting to satisfy three women is never something that can be done in a day.

Just after Zhao Kuo returned to the imperial capital, autumn came.

Autumn is a very beautiful season, because in this season, people always harvest all kinds of food.

During this season, people will be full of hope for the new year when they see the rice grains being filled to the brim and put into their own warehouses or cellars.

Zhao Kuo is also full of hope for the new year of the Han Dynasty.

So he didn't stay idle in the palace, but took Zhao Qian out of the imperial capital.

Of course, Zhao Qian was already used to this scene, so he kept looking around while sitting in the carriage, with a curious expression on his face.

"Father, where are we going?"

Facing Zhao Qian's question, Zhao Kuo gave the answer with a smile.

"What we are going to is the second textile factory, the Han Kingdom that was just built outside the imperial capital."

After hearing the news, Zhao Qian was stunned for a moment, and then a rather strange expression appeared on his face.

"Could it be that the father is talking about the textile factory full of women?"

Zhao Kuo nodded with a smile.

After a while, the two came to a factory.

There are high fences around the factory, and there are various guards, but these guards do not seem to be quite strict. There is a plaque hanging at the gate of the factory, which clearly states It says a few words Dahan Kingdom Second Textile Factory.

Zhao Kuo looked at the plaque in front of him with some very strange expressions on his face.

This factory was not actually established by Zhao Kuo, but was established by the Dahan Textile Group when Zhao Kuo left the imperial capital to conquer Seleucid and other places.

At the beginning, there were actually men and women in this factory, but after more than a year of assessment, there were almost only women left in this factory.

After Zhao Kuo heard about this incident, he couldn't help but feel curious, so he said that the first stop he chose to visit Weifu privately was this factory.

As soon as he approached the factory, the guard who seemed a little absent-minded immediately stopped Zhao Kuo's carriage.

"What are you doing?

No one is allowed to enter the factory without a pass. "

Zhao Kuo smiled, and having prepared for a long time, he took out an order from the Ministry of Finance.

"We are auditors from the Ministry of Finance, and we are here to audit the income of this kind of factory."

As we all know, autumn happens to be the annual counting and scoring. This counting is similar to modern auditing. At this point in time, it is completely reasonable for Zhao Kuo to come up with this kind of thing.

After the guard saw the order from the Ministry of Finance, he also had some doubts on his face.

"Haven't you already been here a few days ago?

Why are you still here today? "

Zhao Kuo said with a serious face: "Should I tell you a guard about such a big event?

You just have to call out the person in charge inside. "

After a while, a woman in her 40s came out in a hurry.

The woman came to Zhao Kuo and looked at Zhao Kuo and Zhao Qian with some doubts.

Since Zhao Kuo and Zhao Qian are visiting in private, they must have made preparations in advance. In terms of dressing and dressing, they look like nobles, but they can't see their specific identities, including the carriage driver and so on. A very detailed camouflage.

After all, it was also a private visit from the old Weibo.

So the woman didn't see any problems, and then she checked the order from the Ministry of Finance in Zhao Kuo's hands, then nodded, and said: "I am Li Lanhua, the director of this factory, and the two of you This way, my lord, please."

Zhao Kuo nodded with a smile, followed Li Lanhua's footsteps into the factory.

As soon as he walked into the factory, he could see several very large factory buildings. There were chimneys on the top of these factory buildings, and thick smoke was billowing into the sky.

Zhao Kuo is quite familiar with this point. Things like steam engines emit a lot of smoke and dust, and there is no way to do it.

Fortunately, the area of ​​Dahan is absolutely sparsely populated. As long as the railway network is built and rolled out in the future, these high-pollution and high-emission industries can be moved to those desolate places.

Industry is something that must be accompanied by pollution in the process of development, that is, pollution must first be used to develop industry, and then go back and treat it.

This is a process that every industrialized country in the world has to go through, and Dahan is no exception.

However, there is also good news for the Han Dynasty, that is, there is only one country in the world, and that is, the Han Dynasty itself can be regarded as an industrial country.

In other words, there is only the Han Dynasty in the world, and one country will pollute the air, and all other countries are not qualified to do so.

This is very cool, a country can exclusively enjoy all the carbon emission quotas of the entire planet.

Using the carbon emissions of the entire earth to support the development of a country, just think about it, and you will know how much it will benefit the Han country.

This is why Zhao Kuo wants to conquer the world.

The thoughts in Zhao Kuo's mind were unknown to Li Lanhua, the director of the factory. She turned around and asked Zhao Kuo, "Are the two adults going to check the accounts first?"

Zhao Kuo smiled and said, "There's no need to worry about that. How about this? Please, Director Li, take us to the factory to have a look and see how the production is going."

Li Lanhua was obviously a little puzzled by Zhao Kuo's request. After all, normally, as an official of the Ministry of Finance, shouldn't he be more concerned about financial matters?

But Li Lanhua is obviously also a smart person. She didn't ask the reason, but directly took Zhao Kuo and his son into the factory building.

As soon as he entered the factory, a gust of hot air came oncoming.

Where does this heat come from?

The answer is very simple, it comes from the steam engine.

Just imagine, dozens of steam engines are concentrated in one factory building, and the heat emitted by them alone is incomparably astonishing.

In this factory building, there are also many female workers, they are busy walking around, helping the steam engine to sew batch after batch of cloth.

Although the steam engine is an out-and-out industrial machine, this kind of industrial machine is the most primitive batch, and it is far from fully automatic production.
